TransparentShare automatically rates stocks with data-based key figures and recommends them for buying or selling.
All shares are automatically rated daily after the market closes. The rating is objective and based on publicly available price, company and market data.
The rating of the shares is based on the successful Levermann strategy, which Susan Levermann described in her book "Der enstpannte Weg zum Reichtum (The relaxed way to wealth)". Based on our many years of experience, we have expanded and automated the method.
How TransparentShare works is described in detail in this article.
Unfortunately you cannot buy directly in the Apple (iOS) App Premium. To do this, you need to access the web version: https://app.transpashare.com and carry out the purchase process there. You can then use Premium in the Apple app.
Action:
- Log in to the web version: https://app.transpashare.com
- Select the menu item "Profile".
- Select the "Buy Premium" function and follow the instructions.
After you have bought Premium, you have to restart the Apple (iOS) app and you can then continue to use Premium in the iOS app in the future.
A stock is recommended for buying, though
- the rating reaches a certain number of points and
- the current share price is trading at least 10% below the 52-week high.
The rating
The rating of a share is calculated from the sum of 12 key figures. Each key figure can achieve the value +1, 0 or -1. A share recommended for purchase must have a total of at least 4 points (DAX, S&P 500, EURO STOXX 50) or 6 points (MDAX, SDAX, CDAX).
The distance
A share only becomes a buy recommendation if the current share price is at least 10% below the 52-week high (highest price in the last 12 months). We call this value the distance.
The distance regulation should help to find a cheap share. Our system assumes that an attractively valued share will at least reach its annual high in the foreseeable future. The stock has the potential to go higher, of course.

The Levermann strategy is a value investment strategy and is based on objective key figures. The strategy helps find undervalued stocks that have a high probability of doing well. The Levermann strategy is strictly based on facts and figures. It is simple, understandable and comprehensible.
The strategy is named after Susan Levermann. Susan Levermann is a German economist, author and former fund manager. She managed 1.7 billion euros as a fund manager at Germany's largest fund company - DWS - and in 2008 was recognized as a fund manager for the best German equity fund. She is the author of the book "Der entspannte Weg zum Reichtum (The relaxed way to wealth)". In her book she describes her strategy in detail. In 2011 the book was awarded the German Finance Book Prize.

We have been using the Levermann strategy ourselves for more than 8 years and have made a few changes to the key figures based on our experience. In the following article we describe our experience with the strategy: 8 years of experience with the Levermann strategy
Our rating of the shares is based on the successful Levermann strategy, which Ms. Susan Levermann described in her book "The relaxed way to wealth". It uses objective key figures for its stock recommendations.
We have been using the Levermann strategy to value stocks for more than 8 years. Based on our personal experience, we have made some adjustments and extensions to the strategy.
- The Levermann method only uses the rating for recommending a share to buy. The method therefore recommends buying stocks that are currently at the 52-week high (annual high). TransparentShare only recommend buying a share if the current share price is at least 10% below the 52-week high.
- Our system considers a return on equity of 15% to be a good value. The Levermann method uses a higher value of 20%. Some stock market gurus see a return on equity between 10% and 20% as a good value.
- We compare the change of the share price with the change of the index for the key figures “price change over the last 6 months” and “price change over the last 12 months”. When compared with the index, the key figure is only given a positive rating if the share outperforms the index (market average). The Levermann method only considers the change of the share price.
- We do not use the “three-month reversal” key figure from the Levermann method. The reason for this is that we have already taken the development of the index into account in the key figures for price changes over the last 6 or 12 months.
- We also do not use the key figure “analyst opinions”. From our point of view, this is only the personal opinion of individual people. It is often not clear which facts were used to form this opinion.
- We have included the price-to-book ratio (P/B ratio) as a further key figure for the evaluation. Many stock market gurus such as Benjamin Graham, Warren Buffett and Joel Greenblatt use the P/B ratio for their assessment. The P/B ratio indicates whether the stock exchange price is higher or lower than the actual value per share. The actual value is calculated from the company's property (e.g. machines, buildings, computers) minus its debts. With a P/B ratio below 1, one could theoretically buy the company for less money than it is worth according to the balance sheet.
- According to Levermann, stocks from the MDAX, SDAX and CDAX (small caps) are recommended to buy with a rating of 7 points or more. Our system recommends buying shares with a rating of 6 or more. We have determined that in the past years a rating of 6 points has led to a better result for the investor.

It happens that a share is recommended to buy again. This happens when the rating of the stock falls to "watch" and on another day becomes a "buy recommendation" again. Another reason could be that the distance changes.
If you have already bought the stock, you can either ignore the buy recommendation or buy more shares. However, it is your personal decision how to deal with new recommendations.
